Strawberry Mousse

Preparing for my sister's wedding cake, I made a Vanilla Cake with Strawberry Mousse, covered with Vanilla Buttercream.



It was SO good! I can't wait to see how the wedding cake will taste!!
Not only will there be Strawberry Mousse in the cake, but also Chocolate and Vanilla Mousse!! BRING IT ON!! :D

Happy Bday Samantha!

What better way to celebrate your 18th Birthday then with a Chocolate Flourless Cake with Chocolate Glaze! YUM!





This is what it looked like when it came out of the oven! SO high ... and then collapsed on itself without the flour to hold the cake up!
